episode The Systems Girl artwork

The Systems Girl

Most VAs don't have a productivity problem.They have a system problem. In this episode, Kerrie is joined by Marianne Tansley, also known as the Systems Girl, to unpack why systems have such a bad reputation and what they actually look like when they're built to support you. Because systems aren't rigid frameworks or 25 step processes. They're the structure that lets you stop carrying it all in your head. They dive into how virtual assistant business owners can: * Reframe what a system actually is, and let go of the corporate baggage attached to the word * Spot the quiet moment their business has turned them into the bottleneck * Build filing systems and naming conventions that hold up as the business grows * Use Microsoft 365 tools like Bookings, Forms and Teams to scale without overwhelm * Decide what to systemise first when everything feels like it needs attention * Make the mindset shift that separates VAs who stay stuck from VAs who build something that runs without them If you've ever felt like the problem is you, that you should be more on top of things, that everyone else has it figured out, this conversation will land. Because the work isn't the problem.It's the background noise. Hit play and give your brain some of its space back.

episode Preserving Choice & Optionality as a Woman in Business artwork

Preserving Choice & Optionality as a Woman in Business

Most women aren’t lacking ambition. They’re lacking information about their options. In this episode, Kerrie is joined by Kimberley Caines, founder of PreservHer, to unpack a conversation most women were never taught to have. Not from fear. From clarity. Because fertility isn’t just a personal decision. It intersects with business, timing, and the life you’re building. They explore how understanding your options earlier can completely change how you approach your future without pressure or urgency. Because this isn’t about rushing decisions. It’s about preserving choice. They dive into what women in business need to understand about fertility, including: * Why awareness earlier creates more freedom later * How egg freezing actually works and what most people misunderstand * The emotional and practical reality of navigating fertility alongside business growth * The real cost and how to think about it as part of long term planning * The mindset shift from reactive to proactive decision making If you’ve ever felt unsure, behind, or avoided this conversation entirely, this episode offers a different way to approach it. Calm. Informed. On your terms. Because the goal isn’t pressure. It’s options. And the earlier you understand them, the more power you have to choose. Hit play and start thinking about your future from a place of clarity, not urgency.

episode Getting More Value from Your Business Payments artwork

Getting More Value from Your Business Payments

Most VAs don’t have a revenue problem. They have a cash flow timing problem. In this episode, Kerrie is joined by Nishane Karunaratne from Pay.com.au to unpack how smart payment strategies can completely change the way you experience money in your business. Because paying bills isn’t just admin, it’s leverage. They dive into how virtual assistant business owners can: * Improve cash flow timing * Earn rewards on payments like BAS, rent and supplier invoices * Simplify recurring expenses * Avoid common mistakes with points and reward systems * Build smarter financial habits early If you’ve ever felt cash-tight despite making good revenue, this episode will help you rethink how money moves through your business, and how to make it work harder for you. Because every point matters. And every payment is an opportunity. Hit play and start treating your payment systems like the strategic tool they are.

episode Networking is like a High Performance Sport artwork

Networking is like a High Performance Sport

Networking isn’t small talk. It’s not business cards. And it’s definitely not “selling yourself.” It’s a skill and when done well, it’s more like a high performance sport. In this episode, Kerrie is joined by Jon Sermon, Head of Partnerships & Alliances at Your Empire Buyers Agents and founder of the BIO networking community, to unpack what real networking actually looks like. Together, they break down how to move from awkward, transactional conversations to intentional relationship-building that creates referrals, partnerships, and long-term opportunity. Because in a digital world, your network is your leverage and the VAs who thrive aren’t just doers… they’re the people everyone calls first. You’ll learn how to: *  Approach networking with confidence and intention * Choose the right rooms for your stage of business * Be memorable without being salesy * Position yourself as a trusted referral partner * Turn conversations into real opportunities If you’re ready to stop hiding behind your screen and start building relationships that actually grow your business this episode is your playbook. 🎙️ Hit play and start treating networking like the leadership skill it really is.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
